Title: Charlotte Chambers (nee Stanton) 1811 - 1850
Post by: Adrian Stevenson on Sunday 05 March 17 12:58 GMT (UK)
Hi All, I have come to a real brick wall when researching my Great Grandmother x3.

Born around 1811. She first turns up in the 1841 census in Radford as the wife of William Chambers. (1795 - 1866) This is my only record of her bar her Death.

Had a Daughter Mary Ann Chambers (1834-1907) My Great Grandmother x 2. Who married to William Sam Hickling. Her other Daughter was Ruth Chambers 1839-1844.

She committed Suicide in 1850 (Cut her own Throat) and is buried in Notts General Cemetery.

I cannot find:

1) A Marriage to William Chambers. One would imagine it would be around 1834?
2) Any record of Birth/Baptism so I don't know her parents.

Any advice or help would be much appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Cheers, Ade.

Possible Baptism for Charlotte from The Nottinghamshire Transcriptions, Charlotte Staunton on the 29th October 1809 at St Marys (Anglican) Nottingham, Parents John & Ann Staunton. The clergy didn't always get the spelling of the surname correct especially if the parents were illiterate. It could be the same Charlotte with either the Baptism or Marriage surnames incorrect.

Kind Regards,

Ellen
